    Very nice
    If weight is an issue drop the loops in the channels and loop the whoopie sling in the channel.
    You could also change the ridge line. I use 1.5mm line on some of my hammocks.
    If there is nothing left to learn it’s time to die.
    Live and learn.

    1+ on the very sharp.
    Holding that many features to 14 ounces sounds pretty good to me.

    Man, that's a good looking set up!

    I'm curious about the 'no-hole' Knotty mod. I watched the video and you said you place it in the seam. How does that work? Could you give me a description of that process?

    Regardless, you do amazing work! I just got my Hexon 1.0 and am looking forward to sewing it up.
